137: Get More Clients Now (How to Pitch Yourself)


Listen Later

One of the most common headaches for new business owners is figuring out where to find clients. I promise you, there is no “secret club” filled to the brim with potential clients just waiting for you to find it. The real truth? You don’t find clients, you grow them - through consistent, intentional outreach. 

In this episode of The Shinah Show, I’m sharing how to reframe your mindset and take practical steps to find clients who want to work with you. We’ll dive into:

  • Where these *illusive* clients are (*hint* tapping into your network and past clientele (yes, again!) is ALWAYS a good idea)
  • Why local businesses are sometimes more apt to work with someone from the community who can create authentic experiences
  • What the “Perfect Pitch Formula”  is & how to use it to sell to potential customers without feeling sleazy
  • Why sprinkling seeds everywhere (even in the places you wouldn’t normally think of) is the best strategy for growth

If you’re ready to stop chasing and start growing your client list, this episode is especially for you!

And if you want to expand your skillset to attract a wider client base, the Crooked Calligraphy Advanced Skills Studio is now open! It offers targeted courses to level up your calligraphy game, so you can grow your creative business.
